Breck M's First Post- John Mayer



I have always loved John Mayer’s music and enjoy hearing about his rise into fame. John Mayer is an extremely talented artist, guitarist, and singer. He has had many popular and successful albums. His career started with his first album “Room for Squares” and then following with “Heavier Things”. Then in 2003, he won a Grammy award for best male vocal performance for his song “Your Body is a Wonderland”. Mayer started with a lot of acoustic rock pieces, but has now started to write and perform songs of the American blues genre. After his album “Heavier Things”, he released “Battle Studies”. This album is one of the more popular works. It has the hit song “Half of my Heart” with Taylor swift. Mayer was born and raised in Bridgeport Connecticut. When he discovered that music was his passion in life, he attended the Berklee College of music in Boston.
“Any Given Thursday” is a collection of live music that was put together from his concerts in 2003. The live version of all of these songs proves once again that Mayer is a truly gifted singer and guitar player. Some of his best work is when he is performing live. "Any Given Thursday" is also a movie of him performing live. Mayer's music is timeless and great for any occasion.

What am I most excited about?- Sport seasons, meeting new people, and going to school with old friends.

What am I least excited about?- The homework!
